Description
Summary:This review highlightsrecent findings on the phytosymbiosis of aerobic methylobacteria, including their biodiversity, occurrence, and their role in associations with plants, as well as the capacity for biosynthesis of bioactive compounds (auxins, cytokinins, and vitamin B l2 ) and nitrogen fixation. Future research directions in phytosymbiosis of aerobic methylobacteria during the postgenomics era are discussed.
